[Bug 1451692] [NEW] apt-get source wrongly reports an error when there are no deb-src lines in /etc/apt/sources.list

 

Public bug reported:

If you configure deb-src lines in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*.list but there is no entry in /etc/apt/sources.list then apt-get source behaves as follows:
apt-get source openldap
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
E: You must put some 'source' URIs in your sources.list

This happened on trusty with apt 1.0.1ubuntu2.7

** Affects: apt (Ubuntu)
